64Audio newer IEM model. I forgot either Trio or U12t.

Soundwriter sound is great, oh... the U12T has the Apex, the Trio has not, thats how you can easily see the difference!!!

The Tia Trio and Fourte actually have APEX modules, but they're internal. But yes, that's the easiest visual distinction between the two. :wink:

Make sure you drop by Pacific Booth 34-35 and experienced our flagship HA-300 Full Class A Direct Heated Triode Tube Headphone Amplifier. We have an attractive collection of premium headphone including the HiFiman Susvara, Meze Empyrean, oBravo HAM-T Signature and Ra-c-cu for your audition.

We have a wonderful first day at CanJam Singapore and we are looking forward to meet with more headfiers before we pack up for the next show.




Hi Andy, i made a big mistake by stopping over at your booth FIRST. After listening to your Cayin HA300 + Hifiman Susvara and iDAC6+iHA6+Bravo HAM-T Signature and Ra-c-cu, it's very hard for me to hear the others on that day!! I have to take a long break and come back again to visit other booths after a few hours. Thank you and David (oBravo) for hosting me that day. Cheers.

The Soundwriter sounds a lot like U18. The HD820 sounds like HD800 but with a smaller soundstage, and weightier notes.
The seinheiser amp that drives HD820 cannot make it. I didn't like it. I strongly believe HD820 will sound much better with powerful tube amp like Auris or Cayin HA300. HD800 sounds so good with Auris tube amp. I believe HD820 would be the same if properly driven.

Had the opportunity to attend the CanJam Singapore , it was great to see some vendors that I don't get to see in the USA plus see some of the new products.

  • Vision Ears- First Universal: Great fit , sound was pretty interesting in detail and mids/high characteristics. However I was told that the unit is a demo with only one of the tuning's to be offered it will be a multi tuned unit. Following some of the latest developments of offering one IEM with multiple signatues
  • Jomo - Enjoyed the Samba as always its just a great set of IEM. The Flamenco has a great signature. But I am always fumbling with the switches. Plus I have some challenges with the fit.
  • LimeEars- New Universals Aether and Model X. Both sounded pretty great. Felt that Model X gave me enhanced MIds and some bass adjustment, however found some blurred areas with some songs. The Aether with the stock cable did not impress me, however when they gave me the one with the Whiplash TWAG , wow what a change!!!. When used the switch the bass was just pretty good
  • Stagediver SD5. This company always knows how to deliver on the ergonomics side, the wood version was super light and soft within the ear. As a previous owner of the SD4, they were very close but found a bit more in the lower end.
  • Colorfly, had some great conversation with these guys. They are experimenting a lot , their new DAP had some interesting signature but it was pre production unit so was not 100% final. It was interesting that they had a pair of Oriolus Mellianus at their booth to try with their DAP. That is quite an IEM great overall, the cable is silver. Had not tried this, I felt that it was a mix of the new Vision Ears and the SD5
  • CTM The DaVInci units are awesome, the build, look,etc. If I had the $$$ I would buy the 10 driver liked the low end signature
  • Meze Audio RAI -Aluminium. Nice fit and sound. However it did not really " want them" they are seem to neutral or trying to please everyone. Not sure
  • IBASSO The IT04 are a nice option from the IT03, however I have the IT01 and not sure I get a lot more for the $ difference.
  • DITA Audio Fealty and Fidelity liked them both. If I had to pick I would go with Fealty. However the cable was a pain to deal with. The silver and blue combination of the IEM body and the cable was interesting. But still prefer the black iteration from the past
  • HYLA The Questyle booth had these for audition. Quite a bass. The units are pretty simple (plain purple) and would expect a bit more of "standout" for the pricing
Enjoyed the weather , its nice to get away from the cold

Hi @darveniza ! We're glad you liked the Da Vinci Series.

I finna get some Eikons. Fiio's new FH1 was disappointing, just get the F9 PRO. Sundara was very good. New Advanced Sound IEM was AWFUL!
Elaborate please? Bashing is not very nice
